10 benefits of being a sophomore compared to freshman year:

1. You can finally start driving. You still can’t go off campus, though, so one more year of cookies and pizza from the cafeteria…

2. You don’t have to pull out a map in the middle of the hallway, blocking everyone’s path. Actually, where was Mr. Scott’s room again?

3. You don’t have to endure the chants of “Go home freshmen!” Just kidding, most upperclassmen can’t tell the underclassmen apart.

4. You can step on the falcon mural without worrying that you’ll completely ruin it for the football team.

5. You can turn around the term “freshie.” “You’re just a freshie, stop complaining about your homework load!”

6. You’re used to 90-minutes periods, so focusing during class will be a breeze. Technically.

7. You’re more familiar with the teachers at school. Mr. Yim has a passion for biking; go bond with him over that!

8. There’s no more need to go through your entire closet Friday morning, trying to find something green to wear to rallies. Let’s face it, everyone owns more grey-colored clothing than green.

9. Now it’s your turn to silently laugh at the freshmen when they struggle to carry the water coolers before and after sports practice.

10. Let’s face it, we’re sophomores; there isn’t much to look forward to …. but at least we’re not freshmen or juniors!
